Denture creation is the art, practice, and technique of creating the illusion of natural teeth in artificial dentures. It is based on three vital factors: gender, personality and age. Each of these factors plays a separate role of importance and cannot be over looked. We use special techniques, such as The Swiss Denture Concept to create works of cosmetic denture art.

Partial Dentures

Partial Dentures Portland

If you are missing teeth in either arch it is very important to replace them. The teeth next to the missing ones will drift and move out of their proper position. This can cause bone loss, and lead to more extensive problems. The longer you are without a partial, the more complicated the restoration will become. We specialize in Partial Dentures.

Porcelain Dentures or Acrylic Dentures Porcelain is harder than acrylic enamel and is not for everyone. There is a “Sound” with porcelain that some people don’t like. If you’ve only worn porcelain (in the case of a full upper and lower) you will probably not be happy changing to acrylic. Porcelain is far more destructive […]

Stain Removal on Dentures The formation of stains is usually the result of poor processing. Great care must be taken in making dentures to insure a tight seal around each tooth.
